CAS Extends Deadline in Vinesh Phogat Appeal
News summary

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has extended the deadline to August 11 for filing additional documents in wrestler Vinesh Phogat's appeal against her disqualification from the women's 50kg freestyle final at the Paris Olympics. The final verdict will be announced on August 13. Phogat was disqualified for being 100 grams overweight, leading to her replacement by Cuban wrestler Yusneylis Guzman Lopez, who advanced to the final but lost to American Sarah Hildebrandt. Represented by senior advocates Harish Salve and Vidushpat Singhania, Phogat seeks a joint silver medal with Lopez. Phogat announced her retirement following the disqualification, but her family and supporters, including Japanese wrestler Rei Higuchi, are urging her to reconsider. The International Olympic Committee has indicated it will abide by CAS's decision despite its regulations against awarding two silver medals in the same category.
